:: Thanks for weighing in so quickly! I've always loved the Pascal quote in that link above ("I would have written a shorter letter, but I did not have the time"), but many of the others are also apropos. I think it would be fun to experiment with some sort of Approval-y editing method, but I also agree that it would take a lot of time, and the cost/benefit ratio is probably too high (and out of reach, at the moment). -- [[User:RobLa|RobLa]] ([[User talk:RobLa|talk]]) 00:21, 31 March 2020 (UTC)
== EM list migration nominations ==
::: Thinking idealistically and a bit ambitiously (and a bit humorously), imagine asking on the EM mailing list to focus on identifying which articles here deserve to be moved to Wikipedia, and asking for help refining those articles. I realize this is a fantasy, but sometimes that's a good starting point for figuring out which path to pursue. (I think it's in Alice In Wonderland where someone says something like "If you don't know where you are trying to go, then it doesn't matter which path you choose.")

:This is an interesting idea. It seems that the Electowiki community and the [[EM list]] community are starting to diverge. Given the mixed comfort levels of using [[EM list]] by the current Electowiki community, and given the excruciatingly slow adoption of Electowiki by the [[EM list]] community, and given that Wikipedia editing is something that there's only a subset of us that are comfortable linking our Electowiki identities to our Wikipedia identities, I can see all sorts of complicating factors. What do other people think? -- [[User:RobLa|RobLa]] ([[User talk:RobLa|talk]]) 18:56, 31 March 2020 (UTC)
